But they are on par with Bonds. Cartoon characters that hit dingers. I wasn’t commenting on Thome, he deserves to be in.

From the best everyone can tell Thome is clean and not an asshole. If they let Bonds in they will have a much harder time keeping out Sammy and Big Mac.

So no you don’t know any veterans, you are mostly just talking out of your ass. I mean we were all pretty sure of that, but it’s nice to have confirmation.

so the views from vets are mixed 50% like the care 50% fell it should be better. 87% fell that it should stay as a governmental services and not privatized.

Have you talked to many. Every vet I know (quite a few, used ot contract for the Navy) prefers the VA to private hospitals. on par with a top notch HMO at least. honestly haven’t heard anything bad about the service or quality of care.

No, it’s more efficient, every real world example of national health care works. nice try though.

you are so right, and there is an easy solution to this problem. get rid of insurance and jump on the british model of nationalized health care. So glad you are championing truly socialized healthcare. One way or another you will be subsidizing other people’s access to health care, may as well do it in the most…

I’m mixed on this. On one hand it is a better acoustically and a great song as the acoustic version.

You neglected the democrats part of the cycle. Post moderate liberal, think the public has bought the conservative BS and run a conservative democrat who is far enough right as to be inistigusiable from the “outsider” republican. Wonder why you can’t get votes from the left.

it was -8 out this morning. I don’t give a shit if warming up he car is necessary for the car or not. It is necessary for me.

The universe has lined up, bet the house on the Bears this week. the most bears thing ot do would be to win big, giving fans a false hope for the future, making leading them ot overpay their crappy one dimensional running back or one of their crappy receivers and screwing up their draft position. The most vikings…

Yea I slammed my foot down on that crap, with both my family and my inlaws. no way in hell I’m traveling thousand some odd miles with presents to travel back with those presents and more. No one actually wants to see me or my wife, they want to see the kids...that give us the power, you want to see the kids, you…

We finally had to tell off my sister in law (wife’s parents passed away years ago, her oldest sister is trying to be mom to all 7 of the siblings...) for trying to guilt us into visiting for the holidays. We have young kids hers are all in college or beyond. there is no way i’m traveling with my kids and all of their…
